Indeed, hence "*limit* EINTR occurrences" :-) > Note that with this SA_RESTART flag set via siginterrupt you _may_ be making > a trade off between being able to process python signal handlers during long > reads or writes vs having to wait until the entire thing has finished. asyncio uses a wakeup FD, registered in the main event loop: so as soon as a signal is received, the main loop will wake up and run the signal handler. So this would only be a problem if you were doing a blocking syscall from the main loop thread, which would be a really bad idea anyway. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue19850> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
